Synopsis

Full Length / Characters: 5 male, 2 female, 3 children Scenery: Composite setThis fresh approach to the classic tale faithfully conveys the magic of Dickens.

On Christmas Eve in 1843 friends and family gathered at Dickens' home ask him to tell a story, but he refuses to work on Christmas Eve.

If there is going to be a story, each must take a part in its telling.

And so the story unfolds with the cast of 10 playing over 40 parts.
